One of the best things about Leetcode content is that there's never any arguments on how to do things. It's like math and physics where you can't argue on how to do a derivative or build a Tesla. Nobody argues on how to do Dijkstra's or Hashing. It's like a world where things are just true based on foundational decision making. If you step into the real world, finance bros will tell you "buy this stock. It'll go to the moon" and they'll make money from it. The age old CS debates go like: "Vim vs. Emacs" "Tabs vs. Spaces" "Typescript is the worst. React is cool" And 90% of the time it's just people's personal preferences. I love that statistic that shows that Math and Philosophy majors score highest on the LSAT. Math and Philosophy teach them these logical skills, and they can apply it to real life areas and be more correct than people who never learn these skills. And the other statistic where Math and Physics majors are paid very well because they usually enter Finance, but their analytical skills are better and they're decisions are just more correct than everyone else. Being more correct in finance is worth a lot of money. Most of life just seems like people ego battling or pushing narratives because it benefits them. The best people learn how to discern against "fake gurus" and liars. But hard sciences are an area where nobody can lie about truths of the world.

Been investing in my kids. Levi recently started learning C++, in hopes of potentially making a game in UE sometime in the future. A couple months back, Levi made a CLI-based math game for his younger siblings. Zero help from me whatsoever. Although, recently I had him switch up to Rust, due to reasons 😒 . I figured he can always learn C++ later. I emphasize focusing on mathematics first (for him and our younger ones) as software engineers should be language agnostic anyway. #SoftwareEngineering #Gaming #Coding #KidsAreTheFuture
